I announce a Postdoc position in my group project under the CREST project ``Technology for Computing Revolution for Society 5.0":

http://www.jst.go.jp/kisoken/crest/en/research_area/ongoing/areah30-4.html

Team Hokkaido is trying to build a new computing system based on the Ising model. The team consists of four groups, one of which is my Mathematical Science Group. There are 11 other members, 4 of which are faculty members, 7 others are graduate students. We are investigating the following problems rigorously:

1. Find a best possible embedding of an Ising model on a irregular graph to an Ising model on a given regular graph. 2. Find the ground state of the above Ising model on the regular graph by a sampler faster than, say, Glauber dynamics. 3. Find how stable the ground state is against noise in coupling coefficients and/or external magnetic fields. 4. Find killer applications of the Ising computer.

The posdoc position is a 2-year position, starting from April 2019 the earliest, with possible 2-year extension (depending on performance). The net salary will be ranging from 3,769,524 JPY to 5,689,524 JPY (depending on previous experiences). The deadline of application (send via email a CV and a list of publications to: sakai@math.sci.hokudai.ac.jp) is set on December 15, 2018.

Best regards, Akira Sakai
